The endgame of SEO is real people, readers, and users who are performing queries and reading content. However, social media is the actual venue where people are interacting today. Social users trust their social network for job recommendations, product purchases, personal encouragement, and news on current events.

It doesn’t really matter that Google doesn’t count your social signals, because you have an audience that is completely immune to any algorithm change.

Social media activity is an increasingly important factor in search rankings.

It’s no secret that the search engine optimization landscape has changed dramatically and the factors that influence high SEO rankings have changed as well. The reality is the web is now highly social, and this dramatically changes search. With so many highly evolved social media platforms, it’s hard to decipher which platforms have the most impact on SEO (see also: The Difference Between SEO and SEM).

In this article, we will dig into the world of modern SEO to see not just how social media affects search, but which social media platforms have the most impact on search optimization.

Great recap of what you should have in mind to align your social and SEO efforts. Some of them are easy to implement tips, some of them are harder to embrace. In particular, the #1 - "publish high quality content".

The reality is that no matter how many tips you receive or how many times you're being told to publish high quality content, creating content remains hard.

For busy professionals and businesses however, curating relevant content on your areas of expertise is more accessible: you're probably reading a lot of the content worth sharing anyway so you're just a few clicks away from publishing it and making an impact with it.

Social Media SEO has become an important element in every marketer’s digital marketing funnel. Writing good content is not good enough to benefit your business with maximum exposure online.

Without using the social media search engine optimization process you will unlikely reach a wider audience for your content. Businesses often lag behind their competitor’s marketing sales because they failed to maximize their efforts in using the powerful influence of social media for building traffic and growing a website’s popularity online.

SEO and Google have been synonymous - while most SEO tactics and approaches are search engine agnostic, they often get tied to Google ranking. It's fairly obvious why this is the case - Google is the most popular search engine with 67.3 percent of market share according to comScore.

Google also addresses (and condemns) SEO efforts more frequently than toner engines. But SEO isn't just for Google, and really isn't just for search engines, either. Every social media network has some type of search functionality.

As social media usage has risen, so has the volume of searches on these networks (YouTube is the second largest search engine behind Google and Twitter receives 2.1 billion queries per day).

To understand what is popular, relevant, and credible, the search engines are turning to social media.

Social media can impact SEO simply by encouraging natural link building. Think about it? Google doesn't want you to manufacture back links to manipulate page rank. But it's OK for others to share your content, right? Using social media so that others can find and share your content is natural and should demonstrate what Google wants to see. Of course, people will abuse that, too. Which is why engagement is key; develop and nurture relationships so there's always a genuine connection.

What is coming for SEO? 2014 and the few coming years will be dedicated to improving the quality of search and SEOs/digital marketers will need to expand their reach in order to remain ahead of search.

To summarize successful SEO will rely on:

- A better understanding of audiences at both global and personal levels;

In recent years, marketers and company owners could approach SEO and its value to Google and other search engines by producing quality, relevant content that would interest their audience. Unfortunately, with the rise of dishonest PageRank practices, it seems that producing that same quality, relevant content is no longer the most effective way to rank in the search engine arena.

@ScentTrail - Agreed but it is all taxonomy. Could also say there will ALWAYS be new #SEOhttp://sco.lt/6jc0iP via @scoopit#SEO

AGREE with Jack. The way he says it the emphasis is where it belongs - on the constant sea of change as Google and everyone else iterates code daily and hourly some day soon.

Radical SEO IdeaIn 2003 I climbed up on a soapbox and tried to sell my Direct Marketing bosses on content marketing. They knew content because they paid BIG BUCKS to copywriters.

DM writers seemed to have a magic wand. They could tell a story that motivated people open their mail and call the call center. Today we need so much less WORK from our customers and yet achieving that "less work" is so much harder.

My radical idea is THERE IS NO "NEW SEO".

I'm not saying that half of this infographic (the new half) isn't helpful. It is helpful, but the idea of comparison is a) moot and b) not as dramatic as this comparison makes it feel and seem.

Understanding the WHY and WHAT is moot. The new SEO simply IS and they have a solid presentation of the "new SEO" here. The problem is boiling the new SEO down to an infographic chart with little boxes denies the interconnection between each of these pieces of sinew and the highly dynamic nature of this new mobile social web.

Mobile and social are dancing on a fire. One hand of the dancer, the hand holding the phone, pours gas on the fire even as the other hand, the social hand, tries to share the very HOT experience.

SO, focus on one side of this infographic and don't get caught up in why, how, who. Focus on how the new SEO is a tapestry and your marketing may need a massive RETHINK to play well with the new constantly and quickly changing Google.

A recent study revealed that 99% of brands are on Twitter. Although small businesses may have paved the way for Twitter marketing success, the world's largest brands are adopting the platform a both a customer service and marketing tool at an increasing rate.
